Title: In the Wayward Pine
Rating: G


Theme: Mother Confessors
Genre: General/Drama
Characters: Kahlan Amnell, Dennee Amnell (Dennee's POV)
Timeline/Spoilers: Kahlan's about age 16/Spoilers for "Listener"

Prompt: Singing
Word Count: 607

Author's Notes: This one's inspired by hearing Brigid sing in the show actually. *grin* I also had this image of Kahlan and Dennee just being regular girls for a moment in my head so I wondered what that might mean for Confessors.

Oh, and the song Kahlan sings is just one I wrote for her. Here it is by itself

( He loves me, he loves me not... )

Title: Paint Your Dreams
Rating: G


Theme: Mother Confessors
Genre: General/Drama
Characters: Kahlan Amnell and her Mother (Mother's POV)
Timeline/Spoilers: Kahlan's five; essentially spoilers for "Bound"

Prompt: Nightmares
Word Count: 791

Author's Notes: Okay, so this one... I kind of did a weird ol' mix of book and series. From the book, I took that Kahlan's mum was the Mother Confessor. I also used the name Brophy for her stuffed animal, and I mention the Mud People. From the series, I use the fact that Kahlan's mum dies when she's five and that Fredrick is her father. This story basically takes place right at the time that Kahlan's mother is getting sick.

It does take place in the world of the series though. *grin*

( If only in my dreams... )

Title: Where is the Little Boy I Carried
Rating: PG-15; rated for violence and implied violence


Theme: Mother Confessors
Genre: Drama/Tragedy/Horror
Characters: Serena, Her son (I named him William)
Timeline/Spoilers: Spoilers for "Sacrifice"

Prompt: Destiny/Fate
Word Count: 1081

Author's Notes: My take on how Serena's son might have died

Title: Haunted
Rating: PG; rated for general concepts


Theme: Mother Confessors
Genre: General/Drama
Characters: Amfortas, Viviane
Timeline/Spoilers: Spoilers for "Revenant"

Prompt: Haunted
Word Count: 537

Author's Notes: Again, "spells" are just nonsense words that sounded good to me. *grin*

( They walk the halls... )

Title: Catch Her in the Rye
Rating: PG; rated for some adult content


Theme: Mother Confessors
Genre: Drama/Romance
Characters: Kieran/Viviane
Timeline/Spoilers: 1000 years before series (that's how old they said the legend was)/spoilers for "Revenant"

Prompt: Summer/Song Title (Comin' Thro' The Rye - Robert Burns)
Word Count: 529

Author's Notes: It's a fairly reasonable guess I think, to at least suppose that Viviane could have been a Mother Confessor. At the very least, it is never directly contradicted by the source material, so I beg your indulgence. *grin* Oh, and yes I'm one of those that thinks there's at least some doubt about the "fact" that Kieran was confessed.

( When a body meets a body... )

Title: legendland Big-Bang Challenge
Genre: Legend of the Seeker
Theme: Mother Confessors
Rating: G through NC-17 (Each story is rated in it's own entry)
Timeline/Spoilers: From 3000 years before the series "begins" to after the series ends (each entry is marked accordingly) ~The period of time Confessors have been around. *grin*
Spoilers: Everything is up for grabs - in other words, spoilers for the whole series and some bookverse "facts."

Author's Notes: So these are my twenty ficlits written for the big-bang challenge in the theme of "Mother Confessors." To be noted, I have used original characters in many of these stories. In addition, I have drawn from the bookverse for some source material such as names and basic histories. Though I have done both, all these stories are meant to take place in the world of the series. I have tried to be clear in the author's notes on each entry to place the story within the proper context. *grin*

One finally note story-wise, I have tried to place the stories in a rough chronological order, so the first story would be the "oldest" and the last story would be the most "recent" (historically speaking *grin*)

And many, many thanks to muses_mistress for reading these over for me and being a generous beta reader. *grin*
